Bostick School is a historic one-room school located near Ellerbe, Richmond County, North Carolina. It was built about 1890, and is a one-story, gable-front frame building clad in weatherboard siding. It measures approximately 26 feet by 36 feet. The structure ceased to operate as a school in 1922, and subsequently used as a peach packhouse, a tobacco barn, and a tool shed. The school building underwent a major restoration between the years 1992 and 1998.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.[1]
